Donald Trump, Dave Dixon, and the NFL's Last Great Challenger
The NFL has convincingly conquered every challenge thrown at it and established an unyielding hold over the world's most lucrative sport. That much is undeniable. But how has it gone so long without facing such a challenge? How has someone not decided there was too much money involved to not mount a challenge for the top spot? This is the story of the last who dared stand up -- of David Dixon and Donald Trump, of Herschel Walker and Steve Young, of a crash and burn so spectacular it has reinforced the NFL's monopoly from now to the end of time. This is the story of the USFL.

The Rise and Fall of George Kliavkoff
Просмотров 40828 дней назад
Fans of college football may never forget how radically the landscape of the sport changed as George Kliavkoff oversaw the collapse of the PAC-12 Conference; his failure to reinforce their status as a power 5 league, whether through expansion or consolidation, sent the ACC to the Pacific Coast and the Big Ten to the City of Angels. How did it all manage to turn out so poorly for the New York-na...

This Is UConn: The Story of College Basketball’s New Kings

From their very first game in 1901, the history of Connecticut basketball weaves a fascinating tale. Despite many years languishing in irrelevance, they've blazed a trail that would make even John Wooden look twice: back-to-back national champions, the envy of the Big East, and college basketball's most successful team over the last 30 years. This documentary explores the men that laid the foun...

    Front court will be tough with Mahaney, Diarra, & Mckneeley. I would assume would all start. Hopefully AK comes back after testing the waters to play the 4 with Samson & Tarris Reed fighting for the 5. Unless Hurley opts to continue to use Diarra off the bench and Jaylin Stewart makes some strides this summer. Regardless they will both will play significant minutes. Should leave us 9 deep with Solo Ball, Jayden Ross, & freshman Ahmad Nowell. Can't wait to see Mckneeley & Mahaney shine in Luke Murray's offense!

      As someone who has been watching college basketball since the early 1980s all I can say is 🤣🤣🤣🤣 to your premise. College basketball has been on decline since the early to mid 1990s when early entries became available for the NBA. Sure there have been times since then with great champion teams such as the back to back Florida title teams and 2005 UNC but there is a lot of parity in college basketball now and as dominant as UCONN has been the past several years they are still not as good as programs from the past before early NBA entries.

And denying UCONN as the superior blue blood for what they have accomplished in the age of upsets is impressive. Back to back these days is unheard of and they did so by covering the spread every damn game. Just give credit when its due.

      I am sorry but this UCONN team would not have destroyed great teams of the past. Also, I never denied UCONN being a blieblood program. What UCONN has done is stellar. However, great teams of the past would not be destroyed by current UCONN which in of itself is quite comical and laughable as one who witnessed great teams of the past. Also, great teams of the past were not one dimensional either.

Men's basketball was pretty good (they reached the Sweet Sixteen in 1976), but women's basketball was an afterthought. We had a team, but it was irrelevant. I had to say, I graduated from the University of Connecticut because if I said UConn, people would think I was referring to that Canadian territory next to Alaska. We've come a long way, baby!
